Top new benefits of Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 Web Premium
Enhanced Multiscreen Preview panel in Dreamweaver
View website designs as they would appear across desktops, tablets, and smartphones of different
sizes and resolutions, all within a single, easy-to-use panel in Dreamweaver CS5.5. In addition,
handle custom media queries and efficiently manage multiple CSS files.
With enhancements to the Multiscreen Preview panel in Dreamweaver CS5.5, you can view three
different screen sizes at the same time in Live View. This new functionality allows you to quickly
and easily preview your designs for smartphones, tablets, and desktops. You can also preview
custom screen sizes and custom styles for each device.
The Multiscreen Preview panel also helps you create CSS media queries and display separate style
sheets for each device. As you change the size of the screen in Design View, the corresponding
media query is applied, which allows you to switch between styles in real time. Simply resize
Design View to yet another size, and then design for that device.
The new Media Queries dialog box provides a robust method for generating and applying any
number of media queries to your page or to a site-wide media query file.
Integration with BrowserLab
Improve the accuracy and integrity
of your designs across browsers and
operating systems. Activate links so
that you can click through previews,
and save time by not having to copy
and paste or type individual URLs.
Easily access pages you’ve recently
tested in BrowserLab’s URL history,
and integrate with the Firebug
Firefox extension.
In the Media Queries dialog box, you can attach or create CSS files for different screen sizes.
Robust jQuery support in Dreamweaver
Coding just became more powerful with integrated jQuery code hinting and starter layouts for
many different types of mobile devices and mobile projects in Dreamweaver CS5.5. jQuery— an
industry-leading JavaScript framework—makes it easier than ever to build robust user interfaces
for mobile projects. Web designers will appreciate how quickly they can add interactivity to web
pages, and developers will appreciate how much coding time they can save in Dreamweaver CS5.5
when using the framework.

Expanded platform and device support in Flash Professional
Flash Professional CS5.5 makes it easier to reach audiences on the latest Adobe Flash Platform
runtimes, including Flash Player 10.2 and Adobe AIR 2.6.
Deliver to smartphones. Deliver content that plays back on millions of devices worldwide, and
reach audiences on devices that run and Android 2.2 and above. Use Adobe AIR for iOS Support,
included with Flash Professional CS5.5, to compile ActionScript bytecode into native iPhone
application code, which can be distributed via the iTunes store.*
Deliver to tablets. Produce immersive content optimized for tablet devices. Take advantage of
touch input and gesture-based actions that enhance the user experience.
Deliver to Internet-enabled televisions. Extend the reach of your content into consumers’
Internet-connected living rooms, with immersive experiences and applications that run on Adobe
AIR for the Digital Home.
Deliver to desktop computers. Take advantage of the ubiquity of Adobe Flash Player within
browsers, and extend beyond the browser with Adobe AIR. Your content displays with a consistent
look and feel across operating systems and browsers.
New templates, including those for AIR for Android, are available from the New From Template dialog box in Flash Professional.
Efficient workflows for multi-target content
Simplify the creation and management of multiple FLA files that are created for a single project, but
that target multiple devices. Share code and assets across documents and device targets to
efficiently create, test, package, and deploy content for a wide range of screens and devices. For
example, symbols modified in one document update across other documents.
The Project dialog box has been enhanced to include a Default Document section, which allows
you to specify a document name, target player, and ActionScript version.
With Flash Professional CS5.5,
you can share assets from your
library across files. The Project
panel also makes it easier to
manage multiple files that belong
to the same project.
*Subject to Apple’s current requirements and approval.

Content scaling when resizing stage
One of the most time-consuming aspects of designing content optimized for various screen sizes is
scaling that content to fit to every size. Designers spend much of their time adjusting a single design
to work at multiple sizes.
With Flash Professional CS5.5, you can choose to scale the contents of your file when you change
the size of the stage. Everything on the stage, including symbols and motion paths across all
scenes, are scaled. There are also controls for limiting scaling to unlocked or visible layers.
By selecting the Scale Content With Stage option, you can easily resize artwork and timeline data to work at different sizes.
Enhanced layer control
Flash Professional CS5.5 gives you more control over the contents of your document with the
ability to do even more with layers. Copy and paste layers—including ones with motion and
inverse kinematics armatures—to a different timeline or even to a different FLA document. You
can also cut or duplicate layers, and even copy and paste folders.
Copying layers between documents makes it easy to move content between different files in the same project.
Mobile application development with Flash Builder 4.5 Premium Edition
Build standalone applications targeted at multiple platforms using the new mobile support for
ActionScript and Flex projects in Adobe Flash Builder 4.5 Premium Edition. Leverage mobile-ready
components optimized for performance and touch input.
Full designer-developer workflow with Flash Catalyst CS5.5 and Flash Builder
4.5 Premium Edition
Flash Catalyst CS5.5 and Flash Builder 4.5 introduce a full collaborative design-developer
workflow, allowing you and your developer to pass FXP files back and forth.
With Flash Catalyst CS5 and Flash Builder 4, Adobe enabled a workflow that allowed designers to
provide native Flex Project (FXP) files to developers, who could then open and continue to work
with those files. Now, with Flash Catalyst CS5.5 and Flash Builder 4.5, Adobe expands this concept
and delivers a powerful new workflow that lets designers work in parallel with developers, on the
same project.

Extend your desktop workflow
A recent update to Adobe Photoshop
CS5 and Photoshop CS5 Extended
software opens the door for
communication via wifi between
this industry-leading digital imaging
software and apps on popular device
platforms like Android, BlackBerry,
and iOS.‡ To learn more about the
first apps to take advantage of
this new connectivity, visit www.
photoshop.com/products/mobile.
For example, you can begin by creating a wireframe in Flash Catalyst CS5.5. Add interactions,
transitions, and constraints, and then hand the file off to a developer. In Flash Builder 4.5, the
developer can add logic and create connections to data sources, and then return the file to you.
You can then open the file in Flash Catalyst CS5.5 to add final artwork and skin the application.
A protected workflow
When you open files that were created or modified by a developer in Flash Builder, there is the risk
that you may compromise the work done by the developer. For example, if a developer adds
ActionScript that references a component, and you remove that component, the file will produce
errors, or it won’t run as expected. To prevent potential issues, Flash Catalyst CS5.5 helps prevent
you from deleting or modifying components, if doing so will result in broken code.
In addition, you may open a file that contains a data list that a developer has already linked to a
data source. You can still skin the component within Flash Catalyst CS5.5; however, the DesignTime Data panel is disabled for that component, thus protecting the integrity of the code. The data
displayed in the component when you test it will be live data.
When you select a data list component that was created by a developer, a message in the
Design-Time Data panel informs you that the data cannot be edited in Flash Catalyst.
HTML5 emulation and debugging in Adobe Device Central
Simplify the production of innovative and compelling content for mobile phones and consumer
electronic devices with Adobe Device Central CS5.5. Save time by automating testing and
simulating accelerometer, geolocation, multitouch device inputs, and network performance of
mobile content across a dynamically updated library of device profiles. Now with support for
WebKit, HTML5, and the latest versions of Adobe Flash Player, Adobe Device Central CS5.5 helps
creative professionals and developers deliver engaging experiences to millions of mobile
subscribers and consumers of content on many other devices.
Use Adobe Device Central CS5.5 to emulate HTML5 content on supported devices, and take
advantage of the latest version of WebKit to profile media queries, video, canvas, and SVG.
Enable/disable JavaScript and get accurately sized previews.
